Horst ist ein Held

This song is for all mothers who have baptized their sons with the name Horst. Doesn't each of us have a Horst living next door? And isn't he always there when you need him?

If your car doesn't start one day,
water drips from the wall,
if you've locked yourself out again,
if the TV set
fails to work again,
and the phone is also out of order,
if you need a ladder at some point
or a lightning rod,
someone who lays a pipe,
then just call over the fence,
you can count on him,
he is always there when you need him!

Horst is a hero,
he is the best friend in the world,
he is a carpenter and painter
and the best wallpaperer.
Horst is a hero!
Horst is a hero,
he is there when you call him,
he is a buddy and psychiatrist
and insurance advisor.
Horst is a hero!

In the pub next door,
you're holding your own today,
would have liked to order two more beers,
but your wallet is empty
and as thirsty as a bear,
you're just about to leave,
then he stands next to your table,
the next round is on me,
but he hasn't even introduced himself yet.
Then he raises his glass
and he's truly having fun
and the whole pub sings in chorus:

Horst is a hero,
he is the best friend in the world,
he is a carpenter and painter
and the best wallpaperer.
Horst is a hero!
Horst is a hero,
he is there when you call him,
he is a buddy and psychiatrist
and insurance advisor.
Horst is a hero! (2x)
Horst is a hero!
Horst is a hero
